 se Objectives:\n\nAt the completion of the program the participant sho
 uld be able to:\n\n1. Identify the anatomy/physiology of the cerebrova
 scular system.\n2. Discuss Doppler/color physics and be able to (sonog
 raphers) apply these principles to optimize system controls or (physic
 ians) utilize this information for identifying technical errors which 
 may result in misdiagnosis.\n3. Perform routine scan protocols, and Do
 ppler calculations in a complete carotid duplex/color examination.\n4.
  Identify normal/abnormal spectral Doppler/ color characteristics; exp
 lain methods for obtaining quantitative information and state the diag
 nostic relevance of each measurement.\n5. Desscribe and characterize p
 laque and other pathology associated with cerebrovascular disease.\n6.
  Discuss Intima-Media Thickness measurements and evaluation and their 
 clinical significance as a screening method for cardiovascular disease
 .\n7. Apply the information discussed in a clinical setting, under sup
 ervised conditions until an accepted level of proficiency has been ach
 ieved.\n8. Increase knowledge and confidence to perform and/or interpr
 et examinations.\n\nCourse Topics:\n\n* Doppler fundamentals\n* Anatom
 y/physiology and disease progression\n* Normal spectral analysis\n* Ca
 rotid scan protocol\n* Color optimization\n* Carotid stenosis assessme
 nt\n* Interactive interpretation case studies\n* Imaging “Do’s & D
 on’ts”\n* Technical worksheet/document waverforms and measurements
 \n* Structure report\n* Intima-Media Thickness: Measurement and Evalua
 tion\n* Hands-on sessions\n\nWho Can Attend?\n\nSonographers and other
  medical professionals learning how to perform carotid duplex/color ex
 aminations (proof of allied health experience required). Physicians at
  an entry level of interpreting examinations. Physician participants m
 ay include (but are not limited to) those involved with internal medic
 ine, cardiology, radiology, and general/vascular surgery.\n\nFaculty:\
